Hello friends!
Welcome to a post completion review of one of my recently finished diamond painting kits, "Dragon Spirit" from Diamond Art Club and artist Margaret Morales. This was a kit that I was sent as a sneak peek and decided to work on right away because I was so excited to see this artist's work debut with DAC as part of Cyber Monday. I'm so excited to see what else will be releasing from Margaret Morales in the future!

Glad you liked it and that we met your expectations, Katie! Tbh, we were a bit surprised to hear concerns about our ability to render watercolor kits. They're not as challenging as Josephine Wall or Chuck's landscapes. 😅 This rumor, I think, started about 5 years ago with our not-so-great Tangled render, which Tiny Worlds of Wonder reviewed. Back then, we were just starting out, and honestly, our rendering quality wasn’t the best. Also, TWW prefers computer renders, which are obviously very different from our hand rendering style. Nowadays, very few people like computer renders, and most premium companies, like us, hand render. But hey, we did discontinue Tangled immediately after seeing that review. It was pretty bad!
Now, the main challenges we face are more about dark skin colors due to the limited DMC color palette. We're excited to be introducing our own colors to improve this. Sky gradients can be tricky too. We used to be pretty average at rendering faces until a couple of years back, but since hiring a fantastic senior pixel artist, we've really upped our game, ensuring faces in our diamond paintings are as perfect as possible.
We're super happy you loved the kit and that it did justice to Margaret's artwork. We're looking forward to releasing more great kits like this! 😊
Have you guys ever thought about going back to popular kits you've had for a long time and re-render them with the team and special drills you now offer? I think that would be really cool!
I cannot wait until this kit is restocked!!! I need it in my life!
I got this kit also. I’m impressed how fast u can get DP done. I work on mine 8 hours plus a day and can’t be any faster than 2 weeks or longer. I know it’s not a race but your speed is unbelievable
I personally think DAC did an amazing job. They have improved so much in their rendering lately, they have impressed me. They used to do awful job with faces but now they are really really good! (most of the times at least). They captured the softness of the watercolors but still keeping their signature rendering so well. They also used the special drills wonderfully. Honestly, respect to their design team. I'm so glad I broke my no buy to get the margaret morales kits.
Thanks for this post review!
I hesitated on the Margaret Morales kits and I've regretted it every since. I'm going to try to snag any that restock.
Honestly I really don’t often like people in my paintings. But the more I look at this artist’s work the more I’m drawn to it. May have to have some of her work.
This is Absolutely Beautiful and Stunning! I’m so glad I have her in my stash. I’m so proud of Diamond Art Club rendering team❤️❤️❤️
I snagged up Satura Cyber Monday. No regrets! I’ve already started on her too. Just so gorgeous
I love how you zoomed in to show the special drill placement!
She turned out amazing! I was able to pick up all of Margaret's work that was released from DAC. I can't wait to work on them. Thank you for sharing!
Wow she is beautiful! I love how that came out and I hope they decide to restock the painting. I haven’t gotten to placing them yet but I finally got a kit with fairy dust which is exciting I couldn’t really make much out of them when I was kitting up but I’m looking forward to seeing what effect that gives since I know they’re your favorite.
I’ve been binge watching your videos all day! I haven’t started my very first canvas yet from DAC since it’s my first time doing a large canvas. I’m watching more videos and building up more confidence before I plunge in. I’m absolutely eyeing this one whenever it comes back in stock. Thanks for sharing! She is so beautiful! 😊🌺🐉
When I saw the preview unboxing of this I knew I had to get it! I can't wait to work on her! I also got my first custom pen that matches this canvas from Leopard Leatherworks!
This is such a beautiful kit! I’m sad I skipped on it when it first released but I’m definitely going to try and snag one when it gets restock. Thanks for sharing Katie!
I love this one! I’ve missed it twice. Hoping it restocks soon and I can get it then. It’s so beautiful and even better seeing it completed!
Hi Katie, good morning from Los Angeles County.
Beautiful completion. I will definitely put Margaret Morales on my wish list.
Beautiful! Your unboxing convinced me to get it and I can’t wait to work on it. Thanks for sharing
The gold just pops and it is beautiful
I now NEED this one! Beautiful!
I am working on this painting as we speak. I love it. Interestingly enough I ran out of color 841, but I had my own extras.
Gorgeous Katie! I can't wait to pick this one up!
Omg she is absolutely GORGEOUS! I finished Satura and she’s breathtaking too. Margaret Morales is definitely in the right place! Love the review!
Thank you for this review. I think that she came out beautifully. I hope to purchase her on a re-stock. I wasn't able to get this one when introduced. But, I am very glad to see the post review and your comments are good regarding this art work. Thank you for the thorough review.
I want this kit so much! So beautiful!
Now that’s a review. So thorough. I may need to put this on my wish list now
Gorgeous 🥰 I didn’t get any of her work and now I think this is going on my wish list!
This is beautiful! I'm hoping to get this on a restock. Thank you for sharing Katie ❤
I got this one as soon as it went on sale.. I think it’s an amazing painting!
She is stunning 😍
Really beautiful canvas! ❤❤
I really hope her kits come back in stock soon. They’re beautiful! It looks great.
Absolutely stunning ❤
She turned out so pretty! I’m glad you enjoyed her!
This is gorgeous! It’s going to be my next one 😊
Wow great job that came out stunning
Thank you for such concise, thoughtful reviews of products. I've only been DPing for about two weeks but I can't wait to dive in deeper. And your reviews help me decide where to spend my money!
I have this one and can"t wait to work on it. Just beautiful.
OMG!!! It’s absolutely stunning,… amazing,… so sparkly!!!! I love this one!!! 💕💕💕 Now I think that I need a sugar daddy to buy all this great images.😻😻😹😹😹🤣🤣🤣
So pretty! Love the special drills and the colors teals and aquas! Would pass in this though and wait for next MM paintings with pinks purples. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for sharing! This painting is one I picked out for a Christmas gift (for myself). It was your sneak peek that put her on my list. Will be starting her in the new year. Sneak peeks work! I didn’t know I wanted her until I watched your unboxing. The special drills…..oh my!
Love this ❤ You make me want to start it RIGHT NOW 😅😂
I have this one in my wishlist, it’s gorgeous!! 😩
Amazing rendering! Your drills are so straight…would like to know how you get fast and good placement work!
This is a beautiful painting. Im not sure why I have heard that more than one person has said they were a little concerned about how this may render. DAC has done watercolor types before with Anne-Julie Aubry like with Moonlight Bride and they knocked it outta the part that time too. I believe her paintings were the first Ive heard called water color type. I havent done any of Anne-Julie's canvases but I remember you post reviewed midnight bride for a Drills and Chill. That painting turned out beautiful as well.
Very good points! They’ve definitely done a nice job with softer artwork in the past, too 🥰
@@DiamondsandWashi Thank you. I always remember your post reviews!
There were so many kits i missed out on that i really wanted and hers were one of many. 😂 This hobby is costly.
